Sure Cats, time is definitely a factor. If you're working full time or attending school or you have young kids, there may not be enough time left in the day to even begin to think about helping others when you need help yourself. I don't know what your situation is so that's why I said it's hard to say.

Conversation with my therapist:
Doc: "You know, for the past few weeks you've seemed very disconnected from your emotions when you're here."
Me: "I'm not disconnected from my emotions. I just don't feel anything when I'm here."
(Pause)
Me: "Doc, why are you banging your head against the arm of your chair?"
Doc: "Because I'm not close enough to a wall."
It's official. I can even make therapists crazy.
